Scribble 0.3.0

I am proud to announce a new version of the the Scribble testing library! The biggest changes are the new modularization and documentation. For every functional aspect there is now a separate module so that not a whole load of unused dependencies have to be included in your project if you only require just a single functional aspect. In addition to this, the entire project documentation is now kept in the source and be generated using maven's site support. This includes this wiki documentation as well, although the publishing process is not yet part of the release build jobs.
As new features for testing I introduce a http server as a TestRule that can be set up in various ways to server static content. It's still rather limited, but will be contiuously improved in future releases. Further features are the possibility to create temporary zip files, record system out and err via a TestRule and capture and restore System Properties - a simple rule that helps keeping the test environment clean, and finally a matcher for matching date strings against a data format.

For more information, have a look at the wiki or find the source code on GitHub.

Scribble Release 0.2.0

I am proud to announce a new version of the the Scribble testing library! The new version has support for an embedded ldap server which allows to write tests against an ldap server without having to rely on existing infrastructure. Further, the JCR support has been improved, now it's possible to pre-initialize a JCR repository with content from a descriptor file and to create a security-enabled in-memory repository. Some additional improvements have been made in the CDI injection support and the matchers have been extended for availability checks for URLs.
